I agree it's definitely common courtesy. The problem we had was the guy in question simply vanished. We couldn't reach him via e-mail or phone. He re-appeared some days after when we were supposed to get together with him. His explanation was quite believable, but as my wife said "Fool me once..." He gets a second chance. No third chance.
For our part, we've never stood anyone up in swinging. If we make a commitment, we stick to it unless a serious emergency arises. If that ever happens, we will inform our play partners as soon as we are able to.

If it doesn't, it doesn't. There's other prospective play partners in the works anyways, so it's not a big deal if this one doesn't work out. One in particular we're quite interested in. Still, though we're not wildly experienced in swinging, we've been around long enough to know not to get your expectations of anything up, and just go with what comes your way.
